Hi guys and girls sisses and brothers...

well as my last post was about me leaving my office.. i spent my week staying in makati.. well just spending time with friends and doing some shopping and packing up my things from my 2 year stay in Makati to my good old hometown (angeles City)..

It was July 31st, i have an appointment to the dentist (one last hirit) before i knew it it was raining so hard.. so hard actually.. after a good 2 hours.. well ladies and gentlemen, the whole metro was FLOODED :bonk: ... i have to go home (boarding house) get my stuff but i have to wait till there is no more flood.. oh well i waited till forever but after a few hours no more flood in makati.. i can leave yey! :thumbs: my happiness didnt last that long coz i when i was hailing a cab that will take me to the terminal in avenida.. NO ONE WANTS TO TAKE ME !!!!waaaahhhhh :crying: .. they would stop and ask me 'miss san ka?' i would say avenida po... ' ay hindi ako pedi dun baha dun'.. then i change my mind and would have pasay terminal instead.. they would say.. ay traffic dun miss.. so when the last cab stopped in front of me.. he asked me ' miss san ka?' my answer was e sir, san niyo ba gusto? pasay or avenida? dadgdadan ko nalang po... i guess it worked.. i was able to get i t.. butthe traffic was really crazy... it was already 8pm when i finally get to the terminal..tangina 300 daw taxi k????? i guess i dont have a choice but to pay the guy..

so i took the bus bound to angeles city...but when it reached MAYON area plop! guess what we got a flat tire.. this is too much... will i be able to go home safely???

i have my baggage with me.. how can i transfer to another bus???? there was another bus bound north but will drop anyone who ids only up to DAU area terminal.. but since i have a lot of thikgs with me, i cant just transfer .. it was a bus full of passengers already so the ones with no baggage with them where the first ones to transfer. i was really frustrated, but one passenger asked me where i was boudn to, i said angeles city.. he also asked me if i have baggages with me i said yes.. so he asked the driver if he vcan open the compartment are so we can take out my stuffs and it would be easier for me to transfer a bus.. he did then so well another bus came.. it was a bus for angeles city.. yay! i guess i still have a luck, i was able to transfer and gert a seat can you imagine? while everyone else is standing, the conductor of the bus gave his seat for me...Thank God for these 2 good samaritans...i was able o get to the terminal safely after an hour and a half and find my dad waiting for me...

lesson? Patience is still a virtue,,,, is there a bargain for that? i woudl like to get a few.. heheheh

Be careful sis... You know that we have this superstitious belief in Pinas that some untoward incidents can happen to somebody who's about to leave the country or about to get married. :P:P:P Just kidding! Well, when I was still there (last few months till my flight here), I almost missed my bus stop because I fell asleep. It happened after my second day of medical. I was sooo tired and for some reasons the vaccinations made me drowsy even more. So the moment I found a seat in the bus, I conked out right away and only got awakened when the conductor shouted "Calamba! Calamba!" My stop was Alabang and the bus was about to make a u-turn and head to Calamba. It seemed like I only closed my eyes for 5 minutes but the truth is it took almost 2 hours from Taft to Alabang due to traffic. I was that tired. :wacko:

A month before my flight, I almost didn't go anywhere fearing that something might happen to me or something will occur unexpectedly and stop me from leaving. I was that paranoid!

The more you love, the more you lose a part of yourself, yet you don't become less of who you are;

you end up being complete with your loved ones."
